Reviews for El Rincón de las Descalzas

Review 1：Several burned out light bulbs, bidet wouldn't drain and a staff member spent about minutes getting the heating to work.

Review 2：Wonderful atmosphere with many courtyards. Like staying in a 19th c. Mansion (which it once was).

Review 3：We stayed for one night at the El Rincon de las Descalzas in Carmona. We were pretty much looking forward to it, but the experience was disappointing. The hygiene in the room was below standards, long blond hairs on floor carpet, on floor and in bath,..My husband and myself have short hairs, so these 'remains' definitely were from a prevous visitor, clearly a sign that the room has not be cleaned in a normal way. The sanitary in the bathroom showed signs of rust, a 3 stars hotel unworthy. Breakfast was in line with the total experience... disappointing. Maybe the staff had a bad hair day, but we have been shouted at. Very impolite and aggressive. Dry croissants served, margarine instead of butter,... An experience to forget quickly.

Review 4：Stay in the old town

Review 5：Parking was a real problem although we did eventually find a spot after a really scary drive through the incredibly narrow streets. Finding our way back out of the old town on to the Seville road was also difficult, but none of this reflects on the hotel.

Review 6：Unfortunately we had only one night in the hotel and in Carmona but the location of the hotel and the overall ambiance of the building were excellent. The town itself and particularly the area around the hotel was very attractive.

Review 7：The bath / toilet just had swing doors to the bedroom part - not very nice or hygienic. Very hard to find - no notice on the wall where the alley way was / is .

Review 8：Convenient for bars and food. Parking hard close to - but carry driving down the narrow, cobbled road and you will come to places where it is easy - 5 mins walk ?

Review 9：Breakfast is very basic continental, and the orange juice was made from concentrate which was disappointing.

Review 10：The staff were very good and made every effort to oblige. Some speak English if your Spanish isn't up to it. The patios are beautiful.

Review 11：1) No English, No helpful stuff The stuff could not speak English at all (!) and we had to push them to get the information such as a bus schedule, etc... They said firstly 'I don't know', so we persistently asked them, then they checked the information on the internet... Guests should be very active to obtain all the information needed. 2)Noisy Our room was next to the pateo near the entrance and the sounds of other people chatting and closing doors desturbed our sleep often although I'm not so sensitive to the noises. The room door and window are not isolated well, so all the noises can be heard...

Review 12：Atomosphere, cleanness, good wifi connection, location

Review 13：The breakfast was disappointing

Review 14：Loved the layout and decor. We stayed here at the end of a week touring and didn't want to go back to Sevilla for the last night. Easy to drive in to drop hire car off in the morning from Carmona.

Review 15：Absolutely Nothing!

Review 16：This hotel is extremely beautiful!!! The hotel with it's 3 interior patios are an oasis of rest and relaxation. An excellent example of Andalusian living and hospitality with a five star service, but a three star price.

Review 17：Not really a dislike but it's not easy to find. My satnav initially took me to another part of the town at first so I asked in a shop and was pointed in the right direction. It's near the church. But, even when I go there I drive past it without seeing the entrance, as did I and a German couple whom I met looking for the front door !! Best park your car where the satnav eventually says it is and ask.

Review 18：Central location with a good selection of restaurants and bars in a plaza a couple of minutes walk away. Beautifully designed and laid out; very elegant and tranquil. I parked outside but, as it is located in the centre of the old town, parking might not be too easy if the hotel is busy. It's five stars for almost everything and my only gripe was that it was not easy to find. My satnav initially took me to another part of the town so I asked in a shop and was pointed in the right direction. But, even when I got there I drove past it without seeing the entrance, as did a German couple whom I met also looking for the front door !! Best park your car where the satnav eventually says it is and ask. Great place to stay though. Highly recommended.

Review 19：The church bells announce the time day or night. At first they woke us up, but we missed them after we left!

Review 20：We really liked the central location of this hotel. The rooms are nicely decorated and the internal patios are a peaceful place to relax.

Review 21：Although our room was very comfortable, we were not thrilled with the open plan nature of the bathroom facilities - would prefer a door on the toilet!

Review 22：We liked the room, the small courtyards, and the position of the hotel within the old part of the town, with its fascinating architecture and streets.

Review 23：Everything! Beautiful tranquil room, lovely rooms to relax and read in, delightful patios to sit in, a relaxing bathroom, friendly staff, Monica and Laura were angels, luggage store etc. Nothing was too much trouble, the whole ambiance of the place was an oasis of calm, yet the location was very central. A perfect getaway, would definitely stay again and recommend. It really as good as the photos.

Review 31：we stayed in a suite but it was just a large room, the tv was very small, the noise from reception was very intrusive. The price we paid was certainly not value for money .

Review 68：You need to do your homework on the street layout if you are driving, the streets are very narrow and confusing. Don't park right outside the hotel the pigeons roost on the building above that part of the road and your car will be covered.

Review 69：A true Spanish townhouse hotel. Full of character but very comfortable. The staff were extremely helpful. This would not suite anyone looking for a modern hotel.

Over night our car back window was broken and the car was trashed and robbed . Reception showed us on a map a English car repair place. Tony Marshall helped with police and repair. On our return to Hotel to email next stopover and warn of our delay they were on the point of unpleasant. We had to walk round the town all day in the pouring rain
